2How to Turn On YouTube Thumbnail Autoplay Preview [Guide]
Turning on YouTube's thumbnail autoplay preview allows you to get a sneak peek of a video's content as you hover over its thumbnail, enhancing the browsing experience. However, there are a few potential challenges that might prevent users from activating this feature. One common issue is that the thumbnail preview feature is only available on desktop browsers and may not work on mobile devices or smart TVs. If you're trying to use it on an unsupported platform, you may not see the autoplay preview option at all.

Another issue is related to YouTube's settings and your browser's preferences. Sometimes, autoplay settings are controlled by your browser's preferences or extensions, such as ad blockers or privacy-focused extensions, which could interfere with this feature. Additionally, if your YouTube settings are not fully updated or if you're using an outdated browser, the feature may not be available or work as expected. To enable thumbnail autoplay previews, go to your YouTube settings on the desktop site, navigate to "Playback and performance," and toggle on the option for thumbnail preview. Be sure your browser and YouTube app are updated for the best experience.
